I must admit I am rather new to Ice Road Truckers and the channel its on, our tellies in Northampton unable to pick up Channel Five since its creation back in the early 1990s, our screens looking like a Monet painting with the occasional fuzz of colour in the static. But in the spring we were frogmarched by the government with our arms ... Read the complete review

This has to be one of my favourite programs on tv at the moment. It is currently shown on a Tuesday night at 8 o'clock. I even allow my son to stay up to watch it with me as he finds it really interesting and is amazed by what they have to do. It is a reality programme that follows a small group of around 6-8 truckers that ... Read the complete review

I always enjoy documentaries that follow the lives of people in their various jobs. Ice Road Truckers does not disappoint. It follows men who leave their families for a season in Yellowknife in Canada. They go there for the season when the roads (made of ice) are strong enough for them to transport heavy loads. These guys are ... Read the complete review

I love to watch this, it is currently being aired on the history channel. I know to some of you watching a load of truckers delivering things from one place to the next may not sound too appealing but what may appeal is the fact that they are hauling this over frozen lakes on the ice roads, you have great big lorrys with very ...

For those of you who have never seen 'Ice Road Truckers' before it is basically a documentary series set in Canada's Northwest Territories and the infamous ice roads. It is very similar in style to the 'Deadliest Catch' and the British 'Trawlermen', so if you're a fan of these you're sure to love this. To date there have been 2 complete ...

With the dawning today in mid December some of us are looking out at a white wonderland. Schools are closed in the North and the main A66 route between Scotch Corner and Penrith is closed. I have been on that windy road which trails across the moors between two major roads and today it lies empty and inaccessible. The great British ... Read the complete review

In the world where we have reality shows like 'Big Brother' or the even more irritating 'I was a Celebrity, Help Me Re-launch My Career' then it's refreshing to see a series that bases itself truly in reality. A show that has men being men and putting everything on the line to get the load delivered, this is the dangerous world of the ... Read the complete review
